District 29 Report
It’s almost time to do the Texas Two Step. We are spreading the word to vote twice on Election Day, March 2. A few hours after voting while the polls are open, we will then return to the polling place at 7:00 pm for our Precinct Meetings so we can do 2 things: elect ourselves as Precinct Delegates and present our Resolutions. (There are also places for early voting, Feb. 16-26. But no matter when we vote, we need to show up at our own neighborhood polling places at 7:00 pm on March 2.) We have to be there before 7 or risk not being allowed into the polling place after the polls are closed and the doors are locked.
Even though we may individually support any candidate for any office, we should now support all of the state senators and state representatives who run for re-election, because they all supported us motorcyclists when they voted unanimously for our SB 1967. They did for us, so now it’s time for us to do for them. We need to keep the incumbent representatives and senators in there to help us in the next legislative session to make our job that much easier.
So Aldo has been canvassing (walking the district from door to door) for “Da Lady” Rep. Norma Chávez, one of our best long-time active members and supporters. And more of us will be working for her and for our other candidates from now to March 2.
In addition to Da Lady, there were some non-riding candidates for local office that came to our chapter meeting in El Paso to campaign and to ask for our endorsement. They include Marcos Lizarraga (running for District Judge, 168th District Court), Coach John-John Chatman (for Justice of the Peace, Precinct 5), and Norma Favela (for District Clerk). I will urge El Paso Chapter to endorse all of these fine candidates. No matter which Party we choose, it’s very important that we stay with the process. See you at the County and State conventions.
There is Freedom in the Wind.
Hay Libertad en el Viento.
